Overview
Why choose this programme
The staff in the Mathematics programme at the University of Surrey are leaders in their fields, and they offer support for innovative research in a lively, inspiring and intellectually stimulating environment. Our research cuts a broad swathe through both pure and applied areas of mathematics, and we’re unique in the strong emphasis we place on research at the interface between pure and applied mathematics.
As well as developing cutting-edge mathematics, our research also involves innovative applications in areas such as data analytics, wave energy, drug development, ecology, biological systems, theoretical physics, climate change and meteorology, crime forecasting and prevention, and machine learning.
We work closely with other academics, industries and research groups, ranging from internal collaborations with the Surrey Sleep Centre, the 5G/6G Innovation Centre and the School of Veterinary Medicine, to partnerships with other institutions from around the globe. Our national and international collaborators include Harvard, Princeton, MIT, Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial and the ETH Zurich, plus leading businesses, such as AstraZenica and Offshore Wave Energy Limited, and government agencies, such as the Animal and Plant Health Agency, the MET Office and Surrey Police.
We’re part of the MAGIC network, which provides a large selection of PhD courses in pure and applied mathematics, so you’ll be able to explore these fields during your time with us. We’re also a host department for the SCENARIO NERC Doctoral Training Partnership.
We also have a joint Mathematics PhD course in partnership with the University of Milano-Bicocca in Italy.
